Chapter 790: Confrontation and Self-Introduction
Tarot cards, which are an ancient and mysterious tool for divination.
It first appeared in the late 14th century and was very popular among the nobility of European countries, and almost at the same time as its appearance, the Holy See announced a total ban on tarot cards, and characterized them as the devil's atlas and pagan objects.
At that time, "devils" and "infidels" were described as only one object - wizards.
An even more interesting coincidence is that around the time when the tarot cards were born, there happened to be a wizard in the wizarding world who fit the description of "01 Magician" in every way, Nicholas Flamel, the ancestor of European alchemy.
"So, it's you, it's amazingβ"
Elena looked at Nicol Lemay with interest, and there was not the slightest fear on her face.
In fact, since she was going to invite the living legend, Elena had anticipated such a picture.
As a great alchemist who made the Philosopher's Stone, Nicol Lemay was never a harmless wizard in the world.
The Middle Ages ended in the mid-fifteenth century, and the most important catalyst for its end was the Black Death, which claimed a third of the lives of Europeans.
Perhaps, this seemingly righteous great alchemist was once the craziest Dark Lord in the world.
And the scene in front of her just confirmed some of Elena's previous guesses.
In the face of a disparity of strength and an unknown enemy, Nicol Lemay chose the most decisive, decisive, and at the same time admirable approach - he would rather raze Hogwarts to the ground than plunge the world into darkness again.
"Nothing remarkable, the Philosopher's Stone shouldn't exist in the first placeβ"
Nicol Lemay shook his head with a complicated expression and sighed.
"Originally, I thought that after destroying my own Philosopher's Stone, there would be no second Philosopher's Stone in this world, but I didn't expect you to find Paracelsus, and the most regrettable thing for me is that he didn't come today......"
"It's not a conflict, if you refuse outright, then he's the new O5-1. β
Elena shrugged her shoulders and explained generously.
Hogwarts was missing the all-important subject of alchemy, which was a fatal gap.
After more than a year of studying, Elena was well aware of the difference between Potions and Chemistry, and once the spells in the potion brewing process were removed, no matter how perfect the reproduction was, there was no way to make the finished product magical.
In contrast, the alchemy of the transformation of matter is the closest discipline to the fields of modern physics and chemistry.
Whether it's mathematics, physics, chemistry, alchemy β these are all ways of finding the truth for human beings.
Without this knowledge, no matter how desperately she tried to squeeze the scholars and wizards of the former Soviet Union, she would at most use magic to follow the path of science, rather than a true explanation for the pursuit of quick and easy results.
Because of this, even if there may be a certain danger, she is willing to try to invite these alchemists.
However, this does not mean that she will get used to these remnants of the old times - a new world has opened, and she is looking for like-minded companions, not a group of ancestors who may turn against her at any time.
"As for the so-called regret in your mouth......"
Elena raised her eyebrows and gently stroked the beautiful golden red bird beside her, and her tone was playful.
"Dear Mr. Nicol Lemay, not to mention Hogwarts' magic that prohibits apparition migration, there is no way to keep all wizards in this room. The most important thing is that what you are worried about is a thought, and you can't kill it...... Even if you wipe the entire Scottish Highlands off the map, you won't be able to stop the fusion of magic and non-magic from happening. β
"Obviously, the threat of death doesn't seem to work that well hereβfor you and me. β
"Phoenix, this is indeed a good way to leave......
Nicol Lemay nodded thoughtfully and looked around the room at the wizards.
From the moment ago, everyone, including Albus Dumbledore, remained silent, and took the initiative to hand over the power of the half-blood girl in front of them, unless they all fell under the Imperius Curse, this situation can only explain one thing.
Prior to this, she had already proven her status through a series of actions that were recognized by everyone present.
It seems that a small monster has appeared in the wizarding world that has never been seen before.
And this in turn eliminated his previous fear, Grindelwald did not turn against the guest and make a comeback.
It's just that the more this is the case, the more wary and confused the alchemist becomes, for centuries, he has never met and does not believe that such a young demon will appear in this world, even if the facts have appeared in front of his eyes.
Immediately after, Nicol Lemay's eyes sharpened, and he stared at Elena tightly.
"So who are you? and for what purpose?!"
"I'm ......"
Elena pondered for a few seconds, her face straightened, and she said with a straight face.
"My name is Elena Kaslana, I am 11 years old, I study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, I go back to the lounge at 10 o'clock every day, go to bed at 11 o'clock at night, and sleep soundly until dawn, like a baby, without any fatigue or stress, and so on the next morning. The results of the health check-up also showed that I was normal......"
"So, what the hell are you talking about?" Nicol Lemay frowned heavily.
"I want to show that I am a very normal little witch from any point of view, not obsessed with winning or losing, not entangled in troubles, and not making enemies that will keep me awake at night, which is also my attitude to survival in the wizarding world. β
Elena smiled sweetly and walked up to Nicol Lemay with the phoenix in her arms.
"Why don't we make a bet? I bet you won't destroy Hogwarts. β
"Especially when you're on board the Hyperion and see the non-magical Muggle-made 'Philosopher's Stone', you won't be willing to ruin it all. If you win, I'll lose you a full Gringotts Wizarding Bank. If you lose, then you just need to help me answer a little doubt left in my History of Magic class......"
As she spoke, the girl reached out and took the Philosopher's Stone from Nicol Lemay's hand with great naturalness.
There are no accidents in this world, there are only inevitables - in Elena's opinion, from the moment the great alchemist arrived at Hogwarts, he had already given his own answer, and the rest was nothing more than temptations and excuses.
For an old wizard like Nicol Lemay, all he needed was a reason to live.
At this time, there are too many truths in Hogwarts that can allow this alchemist to continue to explore.
She didn't know how long Nicol Lemay would continue to burn, but at least one thing was certain, as long as Nicol Lemay reopened the field of alchemy in the wizarding world at Hogwarts, then she could keep the discipline open forever.
After all, all the wizarding world needs today is a plausible argument.
